Finally!Even with all those buffs to flame shock, it was nothing more than a subpar dot that was required for lava burst in the cast rotation. Least with a chance of it possibly critting with this bonus, it might be decent(flame shock) as a part of ele dps.

If the crits on Flame Shock proc Clearcasts...

Why is it that other DPS caster's dots can crit while ours need T8 2 pc set bonus to do so? That's bull&*!@.

I tested this, and unfortunately, whether intended or not, this does NOT proc clearcasting.

One thing I'd like to know is if this set-bonus is going to be changed or modified, because the 3.2.2 patch might change the Glyph of Flame Shock to do the exact same thing, making the dot able to crit.Tho, to make up for the changes on this crucial elemental dps glyph, the 3.2.2 patch will also extend the length on Flame Shock by 6 sec and removing the idea that Lava Burst will consume the FS dot to have 100% crit.

I just downloaded the patch, so I'm waiting for the servers to come up to go test it as I have the 2 set bonus. Indeed if the set bonus is still the same, then I see no reason to go for the glyph, as I doubt that they stack and increases the crit chance of the DoT part.

If the case is that they don't stack, I would suggest using Glyph of Lava as, in my opinion, its the best alternative. Although one could use the Glyph of Flametongue, as 2% crit isn't all that bad either.

Edit: Indeed this is still the 2 piece set bonus. So I would suggest using a different glyph untill they fix this. (if its not "working as intended")
